When Europol announced it had found evidence of 680 matches that might have been fixed by gamblers, investigators teased us with the good stuff. Champions League ties were among the questionable matches, including at least one in England. It took about a day for it to come out, and while the English team is wholly innocent of suspicion, it still doesn't make them look good.

Against a goalie presumably being paid good money to let the Reds score, Liverpool only managed a single goal, a putback from Dirk Kuyt. (That's Poleksic in the above photo, not looking particularly unhappy over Kuyt's goal.) The highlights show Liverpool missing the net on a couple of good chances, so bad luck for Poleksic, I guess. He would allow 13 goals in his next three group stage matches, so he was allowed to keep his thumbs.
